I have lived well over half my life (40+ years) in the Chihuahuan Desert but have traveled through, hiked and camped in every major desert of the United States and Mexico. I have also traveled the entire length of the Atacama Desert in Chile by land. Las Vegas is located on the northern edge of the Mojave Desert.
Rating Newest Oldest. Best Answer: Las Vegas is a desert, so it can be warm in the day and cool (sometimes even cold) at night. Usually Vegas is wonderful in October/November and in April/May of each year. Even though it is a desert there can be sudden storms, but they are rare.
